Okay, you’ve been using the Himalaya Neem and Turmeric Face Wash for a bit, and it sounds like you’ve got some mixed feelings about it, right? You’re dealing with oily, acne-prone skin, and I totally get why you’re looking for something mild and natural. Neem and turmeric are pretty cool because they’ve got some serious antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Now, about that dryness and tightness you’re feeling: it happens. It’s pretty normal, actually. The thing with neem and turmeric is that they’re great at tackling the excess oil, so they might dry your skin out a bit if your skin’s not used to it. That could be why some areas are a bit red. It might be a sign to ease up a bit. Try using the face wash just once a day instead of twice, just to see if that feels better for your skin.
As for the skin purging – yeah, that’s possible. Your skin could be adjusting to the change. Sometimes, when you shift to natural products, your skin needs time to detox from previous stuff. But don’t worry if the purging goes beyond six to eight weeks, 'cause that’s typically how long it takes for a cycle to complete.
Long-term, neem and turmeric can definitely help in clearing acne, but consistency is the key player here. Don’t expect overnight magic. But it also shouldn’t irritate you too much, if it happens, we might need to rethink things.
Pairing it with a light, non-comedogenic moisturizer can help keep that dryness in check. You don’t want your skin overcompensating and producing more oil. A simple hydrosol toner could also be a nice addition – rose water can work wonders for calming things down.
Sensitive skin? It can sometimes react a bit to strong natural ingredients, but if the redness is consistently happening, it might be time to consult with someone directly. You could also patch test on a small area, as neem and turmeric shouldn’t endlessly irritate. Stay gentle with your skin, and if things don’t get better or worsen, a deeper look into your skin care routine might be necessary.
